Radiesse Scottsdale

If you want to enhance your facial appearance by eliminating wrinkles and restoring the skin’s natural glow, Radiesse® may be right for you. Over time, the skin’s collagen is depleted and natural elasticity weakened, causing lines and wrinkles to form. However, now there is a solution. Dr. Ronald Caniglia administers Radiesse® injections within our pleasant Scottsdale, Arizona facility to replace lost volume to the skin for a fresh, youthful look. The procedure is quick and simple, and patients can enjoy gorgeous, rejuvenated facial skin for up to a full year, sometimes longer.

Radiesse® Procedure

The Radiesse® procedure lasts approximately five to ten minutes. Anesthesia isn’t necessary; however, Dr. Caniglia can apply topical numbing cream or cold packs for optimal patient comfort if desired. The procedure generally goes as follows:

• Dr. Caniglia identifies the areas where treatment is needed and establishes how much filler is required.
• The treatment site is cleansed with antiseptic.
• Using a tiny needle, Radiesse® filler is injected below the surface of the skin adding volume and fullness.

In many cases, results are instantly noticeable and continue to improve over time. Patients can return to work or regular activities after leaving our practice.

Candidates for Radiesse®

During your initial consultation, Dr. Caniglia will meet with you to determine whether you are a good candidate for Radiesse® injections. Ideal candidates are men and women, typically between the ages of 35 and 60, who wish to erase moderate to deep wrinkles or folds that exist around the mouth, including the nasolabial folds, also referred to as smile lines.

Additionally, Radiesse® injections can be used to improve the contours of the face; for example, they can be used to add volume to the cheeks or jowls that are becoming slack with age. Patients choose Radiesse® because it is a non-surgical procedure, requires no downtime, and offers long lasting, instant results.

Radiesse® Recovery

Patients may experience some minor swelling, bruising, or discomfort immediately following the procedure; however, symptoms generally subside after one to three days. Patients can also take over-the-counter pain medication to alleviate any irritation.

Risks of Radiesse®
